Really nice, love the name! @ryandawidjan, could you see an opening times overlay being added to the locations? For all those pesky times when just about every good venue is closed.
@antbs Opening times is a good idea Anthony though we've been a bit more bullish due to user feedback on including distance/proximity to venues. Will keep you in the loop!
Have been using Fanny Pack for a bit now, and really enjoy the speed/ease of texting a location.
Any way to auto-correct to names of venues/locations?
Also, will there be visual features?
Upvoted for the name alone. 😁
But more seriously, I'm excited to see how the custom keyboard space evolves. It's still very nascent and Apple frankly hasn't built a great UX to install and use them. I hope we see less friction in iOS 9.
@rrhoover Agree with the bad UI of installing custom keyboards. I've come across a few recently (e.g. http://makemoji.com/sdk/) that app developers can actually incorporate into their apps; this way users don't have to install anything extra.
Coordinating a meeting spot, always has so much annoying, monotonous app switching. My mom wants a cross street, friends want a link to a description or reviews and everyone needs the address. It seems small, but really saves a lot of app switching friction. Also, if you're worried about accidentally giving someone the wrong address, it's nice to be saved from yourself. Or at least to have an third party app to blame.
How difficult would it be to add / save a work and home address? Looking through the addresses that I send via text, those are the most common ones. I do realize I could use my standard keyboard and autocorrect, but that feels like a messy hack that might have weird consequences with new versions of apple's predictive word suggestion.
Hey there PH. After seeing some really creative implementations of third-party keyboards for iOS (most notably, Sunrise's Meet), we wanted to build something that would take advantage of the split-screen experience. We realized almost anytime we wanted to schedule a coffee, plan drinks or simply provide complete information for a venue, it was a long (20+ seconds) and clunky app-switching process to find the details (name, address, url) of the place you were meeting. We're not exaggerating, we think this is the norm for many people at least 5-10x/week --> http://streamable.com/t1sw
Fanny Pack allows you to lookup the name, address, url of any venue within seconds and without having to leave the chat context you are in. It's best used as a lookup of the underlying information rather than an open ended search, "coffee". Here's a look --> http://streamable.com/219e
We've found it very natural to use the past month in a variety of ways. Ultimately anytime you, a colleague or group is referencing an offline location, there's no need to leave them hanging or wondering just exactly where it is or how they can learn more.
Very much open to feedback or tech questions - Matthew Ng and Dave Xiang are awesome iOS engineers. Few pro-tips (that will give improved onboarding in future updates)
- Enable full access
- Double tap on results to share the url, single tap for just name + address
- Search outside your immediate location using the Pin button
Love it. Just a tiny piece of feedback - I failed (at first) to give "Full Access" and just got a spinner when I searched for a venue. I'm pretty sure the extension is allowed to check whether it has full access, so a little warning in the keyboard to to remind me to turn it on would have been nice.
@sammybauch Great thought Sam and that's something that's definitely due in the next update. We will do a better job of messaging and providing a prompt - appreciate the kind words
